Hacking Nintendont

[ccfman2004]

The shame is that the games for me run smoother off of USB even when using the same SD card.

Also when using HID and USB, my USB 3.0 card reader stops at Checking FS. My USB 2.0 card reader doesn't

For some reason, i keep getting the no USB connected/ no games Directory error message. Can anyone else try it out and confirm this?

Well that's the kernel without the new UI. It means the UI isn't responsible.

I can confirm that the gamecube adapter works perfectly when loaded from the SD card. It definitely looks like a problem with USB loading.

It doesn't work for me with an SD card. I think the adapter might be more complicated than we thought. Of course I highly doubt it was designed it with Nintendont in mind.

So....we can't use it in tandem with USB HDDs then?

People are making assumptions without enough data. ccfman2004 insisted that the UI broke HID because one controller didn't work with it, despite not checking if HID itself was problematic. strikerdark decided that the official adapter works fine if you have an SD card. Other people think that the adapter works fine for everyone just because it works for them.

People need to stop freaking out and making assumptions. It's counter productive. The reality is nobody is sure what the problem is. Everyone should just accept that so we can figure it out.

Edit: And I'm not trying to insult anyone. We just need some order to the topic, because this whole thing is getting confused.

Sadly the GCN adapter is sold out in my country =(
Will wait until next stock, if not will order it through Amazon.

From all of my testing of revisions 214-226 HID and USB loading have issues where the same tests using SD and HID run fine, even with the GC adapter. I tested each revision multiple times to make sure it wasn't a fluke.

I could only get USB and HID to work on r215, r216, r218 and r222. Even still only my USB 2.0 device worked, USB 3.0 gave me the Checking FS issue. All other revisions gave me issues.

I have noticed that with games that present the Progressive Yes/No dialog, the dialog seems to only appear when McEmu is turned on. When I have it off, the dialog is not displayed. Forced Widescreen and Progressive are off.

JoostinOnline, sorry for accusing you that your UI broke HID.

JoostinOnline, sorry for accusing you that your UI broke HID.

It's fine, and I'm sorry if I came across too strong. The situation is already somewhat confusing, and we (I'm not innocent in this either) are creating confusion. I want this fixed too, but it's just getting more confusing. We need some order.

Double post because I want to make sure everyone sees this. Could everyone with an official adapter PM me your model number? It's unlikely that there is more than one out there since it was just released, but it wouldn't be the first time a model change has been an issue.

It worked for me in 222

I'm a lost about the differences between 222 and the next ones

I've been having a problem with my usb drive, and I've narrowed it down to an small empty partition in the front of the drive. I know this because my Mac reports the drive as 62.x GB, but my PC reports it as 58.x GB. Is there any way to fix this? It was working yesterday, but every time I exited Nintendont, I had to reformat my drive.

The Mac uses a different calculation for storage sizes. For Mac, 1000 bytes = 1 Kilobyte where as Windows does the proper way 1024 bytes = 1 Kilobyte.

tested it with rev226 (UStealth mod), no problems here, just black screen on me when I tried to force widescreen.

make sure in the date/time settings not use the system default ones (if you don't have a previous character profile save), option "no", and play only offline mode.

A kilobyte is 1024 bytes. Companies pretend it's actually 1000 just so they can sell drives for more money. When you properly calculate the size of a drive, it's not the advertised size.

Hi,

I have the last version v226.. and i have a problem with the cheats. I tried for two hours to activate the cheats in the game Super mario sunshine (GMSP01)and it does not work at all .. I have try with usb loader gx or with nintendont directly..
When i start my game, the game freeze everytime when I run my game with cheats enabled in nintendont.

Any help?

No one???

EDIT: i have fixed my self.. no help here..

i have both. if you can only get one, get the wiiu version

Thank you for the reply, yes I actually can only afford getting one since I also wanna get Bayonetta and Sonic Boom, I already have it on Wii U "Sonic Boom" and it sucks btw, I don't recommend it to anyone, but being a Sonic fan I just have to buy the other version too, maybe in the future I'll get the other version of Super Smash, anyway while I prefer playing on the 3DS I think I'll try to get it for Wii U if I had enough money for it, seeing how Wii U games are more expensive over here than 3DS, I wonder if there's a demo for the Wii U version.

tested it with rev226 (UStealth mod), no problems here, just black screen on me when I tried to force widescreen.

make sure in the date/time settings not use the system default ones (if you don't have a previous character profile save), option "no", and play only offline mode.

So it's just not working with widescreen, this makes sense since from what I understand the patch used to get this game to work is somewhat modified, maybe a patch for widescreen can be created for this game sometime later though personally I don't use widescreen so it doesn't really matter for me.

FIX94 I don't wanna bother you but I was wondering, since I reported a while ago that the issue with Adventure Chao race is caused by native controls, when you set it to (on) the game works fine, this was first reported by SuperrSonic, do you think you can look into that? I understand if you're busy or just don't wanna do it, I know you been working hard so don't worry, you may still be annoyed by me so that's cool if you don't reply, thank you.

What is supposed to do the widescreen patch? stretch the image to cover all the screen? Or make it display 4:3 correctly on widescreen panels?

 

[emmanu888]

So this is probably not possible but, wouldn't it be possible to run the NGC IPL or something? Unless its truly impossible to make it run?

I don't think its the fault of the game itself, but the fact that Wario World was the only game I used on dios mios. how would i go about uninstalling dios mios? considering all the games which werent used with dios mios work fine with nintendont, i figure this is worth a shot.

wario world pal iso 258 MB on rev223
mcemu on 251
usb on
led drive on
all the rest is default
